The Pannon Philharmonic is the sole Hungarian orchestra outside the capital to advertise an independent annual subscription series of concerts at the Palace of Arts, and has done so now for more than a decade. The connection has been maintained from the beginning, as the Pécs-based orchestra played a subscription concert in the Béla Bartók National Concert Hall only a couple of weeks after Müpa opened, and is also a regular fixture in the Symphonic Discoveries series. Tibor Bogányi has led... the orchestra since 2011. The young cellist and conductor built his career in Finland with a repertoire somewhat unusual in Hungary, in that he has a particular penchant for full orchestral works conceived in the great Romantic spirit. This style will be represented at this concert in the form of a highly popular piano concerto and a large-scale symphonic work, regrettably only rarely performed, based on a poem by Lord Byron of the same name. Both works are emblematic examples of Russian Romanticism.
Rachmaninoff's piano concerto, completed in 1901, will be performed here by Charlotte Coulaud, a fantastic talent who won one of France's most prestigious competitions in 2013. Coulaud first performed with an orchestra at the age of eight at a concert held to honour her great-grandfather, the violinist and conductor Constantin Bobescu.
